HC Deb 18 November 1902 vol 114 c1234
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate, in view of the fact that Mr. Millar, the Local Government. Board s Inspecting Officer under the Public Health Act, spent four days in the Island of Lewis in the month of May last, will the Secretary for Scotland state what townships in the parishes of Stornoway, Barvas, Lochs, and Uig were visited by this officer; has he made any report on the sanitary condition of those parishes; and, if not, will he be required to state why the conditions of The Public Health (Scotland) Act, 1897, are not enforced.

MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAY

Mr. Millar's visit to the Lewis was primarily for Poor Law purposes. He, however, also made a report on sanitary matters which may be of assistance to the Board.

MR. WEIR

What townships did he visit?

MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAY

I am not aware.

MR. WEIR

He did not visit one.
